Herbst und winter, 1918/19
Herbst und Winter 1918/19 is a German-language fashion catalogue of women's autumn and winter coats and suits, issued in Switzerland in 1918 for retail customers choosing garments. Its plates show rows of fashionably dressed women in long belted coats, wide collars, and tailored suits, with small line drawings of each garment's pattern and cut below. A designer might take the long Edwardian-to-1918 silhouette, the high collars, and the flat technical garment sketches as a reference for period styling.
